Example of how payouts will be managed:

If the goal of 3000 donations is reached...
then one graduate’s name will be drawn to win a brand new car worth approximately $24,000 (or he/she may choose a scholarship in the amount of $15,000 instead). Four other students will each receive a $2500 higher education scholarship. Remaining funds will support Pete the Purple Bull’s Bully Prevention Programs in area elementary schools.

If less than 3000 donations are received... then all Give-Aways become scholarships and the amount given is equal to the percentage of the donations received. For example, if 2000 donations/entries occur, then 67% of the goal was reached. The grand winner will receive 67% of $15,000 which is a scholarship in the amount of $10,050 and each of the four other winners will receive scholarships in the amount of $1,675. The remaining funds will support Pete’s Bully Prevention Program in elementary schools.
